A lovingly-written guide to the main techniques of working with green (unseasoned) timber to produce traditional items, from spoons and staved containers to windsor chairs. A good advertisement for true craftsmanship, with handy tables on the comparative properties of common timbers. The emphasis is on American species, but the practical techniques and information on traditional tools are relevant anywhere. ML. | |
